Activities Home

  • Advanced Art Club and NJAHS promotes imagination, creativity, and art production. 

    We focus on materials and projects that are beyond what you would do in a regular art class.  Students are able to experiment with various art materials in a personalized, open, and exploratory manner.  Meetings are on club days and some mornings before school.  Application and acceptance required.  The National Junior Art Honor Society requires an invitation based on state requirements.

  • Academic Bowl/Quiz Bowl is a fast-paced buzzer competition in which two teams compete to answer questions that cover academic subjects such as literature, science, math, and social studies as well as pop culture, sports, and current events. It is similar to jeopardy, but we play as a team.

    Contact Abby Barnes at abarnes@jcss.us for more information.

  • FFA is an extracurricular student organization for those interested in agriculture and leadership. The letters “FFA” stand for Future Farmers of America.

  • We are a pro wrestling club for middle school students.  Reaching students through wrestling to help them become better people, make better choices and stay in school.  Our emphasis of impact is helping students understand the values of being responsible, respectful, not being passive and leadership.  We DO NOT wrestle in this club.  We watch wrestling, go to live events, and do video conferences with pro wrestlers. 

    Contact Dustin Davis at drdavis@jcss.us for more information.

  • Once a month, West Jackson Middle School holds in-school clubs. This allows all students the opportunity to be a part of a club of their choosing, without the commitment to after-school meetings.
